Eastern Plastics: Finishing & Assembly

Finishing

Surface Finishes and/or optical clarity are important issues to many of our customers. Eastern Plastics has developed unique methods to finish the components and assemblies we manufacture, including their interior features. Our capabilities include:

  • Polishing
    • Wet sanding/lapping
    • Buffing
    • Flame polishing
    • Chemical polishing
    • Tumbling
  • Ultrasonic cleaning
  • Deburring (under magnification up to 300x)
  • Cryogenic deburring
  • Bead/sand blasting
  • Marking/engraving
  • Painting/coating

Eastern Plastics's assembly personnel provide our customers with turn-key, ready-to-install solutions. Some assemblies are relatively simple machined plastic parts with inserts and O rings. Others are very complex, with Eastern Plastics supplying valves, switches, mechanical, electro-mechanical components, and embedded substrates.

In our dedicated assembly department we utilize:

  • Adhesive
  • Ultrasonic welding
  • Diffusion bonding
  • Threaded fasteners
  • Inserts
  • Pressure/flow/leak testing

Through decades of experience, Eastern Plastics has developed highly-effective stress-relieving cycles for hundreds of materials.

Programmable Stress Relieving

Eastern Plastics has twelve programmable stress-relieving ovens. These allow us to pre-shrink, intermediate stress-relieve, and final anneal your parts.

These processes are important to the longevity and dimensional stability of many plastics.
